David Boreanaz Up for Sub-Mariner?
According to Superhero Hype!, there is a whiff of a rumor that David may be up for playing the title character of Namor in a big screen adaptation of Marvel Comics' Sub-Mariner.

I'm not a big Subby fan but Namor is a good choice for DB...for the one or two of you that aren't familiar, The Submariner is the leader of an underwater society with great contempt towards mankind. He also broods alot and thats why I think he would be a good choice. I miss brooding DB...Bones DB is too cocky. Bring back the dark, brooding DB!

I think the best superhero role for DB is the Green Lantern, Hal Jordan. He's an old school tough guy. He can kick your ass but doesn't need tell you how tough he is...Just rub him the wrong way and you'll find out for yourself.

Just saw a Sub-Mariner cover featuring the heavily muscled, mostly naked Prince Namor, who doesn't have what I'd think of as a swimmer's physique, Shiai.

In fact, the guy looks a lot like a certain heavily muscled, half-naked guy whose photo was posted here recently, for just a while. Maybe David Boreanaz wanted to be photographed shirtless to demonstrate how well he'd fit the Namor role. Just a thought.
